Bass. How hard can it be ?

Aug 11, 2008, 22:20

I've just started to learn the Bass guitar and basically for all you people like myself who have no musical talent let me tell you it's a piece of piss. How anyone who plays in a band and gets a fourth/fifth of the takings at the end of the night can honestly say they've earned it is a liar and a bounder. In the short space of five months i've mastered the beginning of 'Peaches' and nearly a third of ' Jingle Bells' which is my Christmas party piece covered. I spent a small fortune on books and DVD's covering all the usual plodders like Jaco Pastorius, Jack Bruce and other lightweights and thought "Bollocks" i'll learn the Sid Vicious technique instead ,which is great as you just turn it up as loud as you can slash yourself with a razor blade now and again and if anywone tells you to turn it down you twat them over the head with it!!! sorted brilliant. If anyone's looking for a bass player short on experience but big on self harming give us a shout i'm only a phone call away.
